Reclaiming My Broken Luna

: Outcome



Astrid's POV

Uneasiness crept up my body at the seriousness and heaviness of how he said those words. The way he said it makes it seem like he is hinting at something else.

Right now, I'm not ready for anything else. My wolf is sick, and I still have to find the cure; without that, I don't even know how long I'm going to live. I don't want to repeat the same pain that Drystan felt with his original mate.

Other than that, I'm also not ready to enter into any kind of relationship. After getting out of a toxic relationship, my heart is still not ready to open up again.

"Drystan," I uttered his name to stop him from the next words he was about to say that I was not ready to hear yet.

I've always wondered why he is being so nice to me. He had done me a lot of favors without getting anything in return. I'm just a huge liability to him, yet he always kept me by his side.

I thought his actions were out of our friendship, but doubts shrouded my thoughts when he suddenly claimed my child as his in front of Killian.

At first, I pushed away all my doubts, but these... I think he is planning to confess something else.

"I'm not blind, Drystan, but..."

"Your child is still my grandchild," Drystan spoke up, interrupting me from my words.

I suddenly turned confused when I heard a different answer from him.

"Since we are blood-related, I could act as a father to your child instead," Drystan finished his sentence.

My mind went blank at his words, and then the tension in my body melted away when I finally understood what he was actually planning to say. "Oh, of course," I spoke enthusiastically as I let out a sigh of relief.

I clearly misunderstood things there. I should have known that there was no way Drystan would fall in love with me.

He is still Killian's Uncle no matter what, and the child that I'm carrying is also his grandson. He would have found it disgusting to marry me. There's no way he would have even a bit of a crush on me.

A knock on the door caught our conversation short.

"Alpha, the guests were looking for you." Drystan sighed when he heard the omega's report.

"Tell them that I'm coming shortly," Drystan replied.

I almost forgot that the werewolf assembly is still going on outside. Nova must be having a hard time handling everything on her own out there. "Good luck out there, and seal a lot of deals," I smiled at Drystan as he bid his goodbye.

Drystan smiled back. "Of course I will."

The first thing that people are

looking forward to in every Werewolf

Assembly is sealing deals and

Bov

alliances with powerful Packs. If only I was in good condition, I would help Drystan with making

connections since that's also what I'm good at.

After Drystan left, I slept to give my body some rest.

I stirred awake when somebody knocked on my bedroom. When I opened my eyes, my whole room was dark, and I could see the moon's soft light glowing outside.

I groaned when someone opened the light in my room, flashing my eyes. After my eyes had adjusted to the light, I saw Nova enter while carrying a tray of food for dinner.

"You need to eat before you sleep for the night," Nova spoke softly as she placed my food on the table beside my bed.

"Is the event done already?" I asked her as I pushed myself up to a sitting position on my bed.

I've been waiting to hear news from her. I couldn't wait to hear what had happened while I was gone.

"Supposedly," Nova answered tiredly," but Drystan is still talking to some guests about business. I already left since the conversation doesn't seem to end." I chuckled at Nova's words.

“Our guests are really impressed by

the preparations that you made, Astrid. All the leaders are taking their time to listen to Drystan since

they've seen what our Pack is

capable of," she continued

I smiled at the news. I'm glad that things went according to my plan. "Has Drystan connected to a lot of Alphas already?"

"A lot of Packs are looking forward to working with us, Astrid. We are already near to reaching our goals. After this, our Pack would be sustainable enough," Nova answered happily.

"What about the Shadowfang Pack? Did you see them?" Nova's smile suddenly vanished when she heard my question.

"They never came," she sadly replied.

“It's okay, at least we tried," I answered to lift her spirits up. There's no need for her to be sad since I'm the only one who needs something from the Shadowfang Pack.

Ever since the Shadowfang Pack, it has never attended any Werewolf Assemblies for the past decades. With that, it would be highly impossible for them to suddenly attend this year around.

I really didn't have high hopes that they would come to our Werewolf Assembly. Still, I sent them an invitation, just like how the other Packs hosting this event would have done.

"You don't need to worry. The

Shadowfang Pack doesn't need to come here. I can visit their Pack instead and strike a deal with them. We just needed to wait until my child was born. It would be better that way," I smiled at Nova to give her assurance.
